The 1930s saw the flowering of a unique mathematical community at Princeton University, sparked by the construction of a luxurious new building Fine Hall (now Jones Hall) designed to facilitate a real community of mathematicians engaged in research and closely linked with mathematical physicists in the attached Palmer physics laboratory. This community was unlike any other in America before that time and perhaps afterwards, and had important consequences for American mathematics. With the pla...

University of Michigan. Department of Mathematics. (27)

http://n2t.net/ark:/99166/w68h2g4t (corporateBody)

The Department of Mathematics dates back to 1841, when formal instruction began at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Mathematics and science was taught by the Rev. George P. Williams (1841-1875).* The curriculum during the early years covered algebra, geometry, trigonometry, analytical geometry and calculus. In 1863 Williams became professor of physics, and Edward Olney (1863-1887) became professor of mathematics. Course offerings gradually expanded as the mathematics facu...

Duke University. Mathematics Department. (6)

http://n2t.net/ark:/99166/w6mh1dpw (corporateBody)

The Mathematics Dept. at Duke University has sponsored several special programs to train high school and college math teachers. Two of these programs were the Summer Institute in Science and Mathematics and the Retired Officer Program. The Summer Institute in Science and Mathematics helped secondary school teachers upgrade their skills in the sciences and in math. It was supported by the National Science Foundation and trained teachers from 1957-1970. The Retired Officer Program trained retir...
